And you can probably already tell I'm back to having little free time seeing that it's Wednesday and it's my first post of the week. Oh the joys of being a full time student in a demanding program. Classes have been going well - we're just being thrown right back into the fire - but it's good to be back. Even if I do complain about it more than I should.
I will tell you that my Maternal and Pediatric class I have on Wednesdays is going to R-O-C-K! Oh my goodness...I didn't want class to end to day! I knew when I decided to go back to school for nursing that I wanted to work with kids (whether it'd be NICU, Peds, Labor & Delivery, etc) but I didn't realize how much of a calling it really was for me. And because of the fact that I have an insane case of baby fever, I can really tell this will probably be my favorite class. Ever. After I write this post I'm going to go read my Maternal book for my reading assignment, but let's be honest, I'm reading it as fun:)
On to other things...Sunday afternoon, Joe and I hit the streets of the Minnesota State Fair! It was a beautiful day to walk around, take in the sights and smells and try a few things to eat.
We had freshly squeezed lemonade, a pronto pup, a gyro, a deep friend snickers bar and a caramel apple sundae with cinnamon ice cream, picked by yours truly. It was awesome.
For some reason, all the barns were closed due to deep cleaning and all I wanted to do was look at the cow butts, sheep, pigs and goats - it's a family tradition! At least we could see these HUGE horses and walk through the Miracle of Birth barn.
We tend to make a big circle around the fairgrounds, checking out booths and buildings that catch our eye as we pass them. I'll be back there again tomorrow night for the Rascal Flatts concert at the Grandstand. I'm going with my friends from high school...it's become a tradition every time they're in town. Any favorite fair traditions out there?
Happy Wednesday!
